Demonstrators gathered Saturday afternoon at the Capitol in Olympia, Washington to protest the tyranny of what they consider to be an unlawful American government. These demonstrators were denouncing a new law which expands gun-purchase background checks to all sales or trades of private firearms. You read that correctly!

How did this happen? Slowly, very slowly and the movement to disarm the citizenry continues.

It is self evident that you may disarm a nation by making the very act of owning a firearm more and more inconvenient or treacherous. One false move (accidental or not) with a gun now a days will land you in jail and strip you of your right to bear arms into the future. One by one, day by day.

Tragedies, which involve the use of firearms by criminals (usually against unarmed individuals), are solicited by anti-gunners as evidence for and calls to further disarm the citizenry and serve as ways to expedite their agenda.

What should a responsible individual do?

Think for yourself, learn from history and protect yourself and loved ones as best you can. Your freedom is your responsibility.

“To conquer a nation, one must first disarm its citizens.”Adolf Hitler

We leave you one last quote.

“This year will go down in history. For the first time, a civilized nation has full gun registration. Our streets will be safer, our police more efficient, and the world will follow our lead into the future!”Adolf Hitler, Chancellor, Germany, 1933

With almost 3 background checks per second (nearly three times the daily average) the federal background check system almost set a new record of more than 175,000 background checks this past Friday, according to the FBI.

Firearm background checks have doubled from the more than 9 million conducted when the system was implemented in 1999. And now they want to implement Initiative 594 which expands background checks to people buying firearms in private sales or simply trading them.

A Columbus, Ohio man who happened to be at his residence during a daytime home invasion shot two of the four invaders as they attempted to burst through the door.

The incident took place on November 20th.

According to 10TV.com, the resident was in his apartment when three men and a woman “attempted to force their way into [the] apartment” at about 5:30 p.m. The intruders were greeted with gunfire and two of them were hit.

Police found and apprehended the two wounded suspects nearby and transported them to a local hospital. “Both were critically injured.”

Neighbors say this same apartment was robbed last year, and that one of the residents was attacked and “hit so hard so hard on the side of the head…with a baseball bat” that it cut his ear in half.

It’s a drought of a different variety, and as a result, customers are clamoring to grab every box of gun ammunition they can get their hands on; wherever they can find it.

However, retailers across the country, big and small, are facing the same situation — a massive shortage on gun ammunition.

Since January, rounds of ammunition have become increasingly difficult to come across. The cause? An intensely high customer demand, fueled by the fear of federal or state gun restrictions following the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary in early December.

Talks of gun bans and ammunition restrictions sent gun owners into panic and into their local gun shops.

Gun and ammunition sales spiked as Americans rushed to beef up their home arsenals.

In the wake of the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado passed some of the strictest gun control measures in the country.

But in recent months, an overwhelming 55 of the state’s 62 county sheriffs have joined a lawsuit aiming to block the measures.

“These bills do absolutely nothing to make Colorado a safer place to live, to work, to play or to raise a family,” Weld County Sheriff John Cooke explained at a recent press conference. “Instead these misguided, unconstitutional bills will have the opposite effect because they greatly restrict the right of decent, law-abiding citizens to defend themselves, their families and their homes.”
